Urban flooding is one of the most economically damaging impacts of climate change on metropolitan areas, and is only increasing in degree and frequency. On this episode of Sustainable Outlook, host Molly Barker is joined by Erin Rothman, CEO and founder of StormSensor, a climate technology company working with cities across the nation to combat this problem by helping them manage climate risk through the creation and deployment of intelligent stormwater, sewer, and coastal engineering controls and infrastructure. With 15 years of stormwater and remediation experience, Erin discusses her career change from consulting to launching her own company, what led to her to create StormSensor’s technology, and what sets StormSensor’s technology apart from other competing technologies working to address the impacts of climate change on water resources and systems to ensure the long-term sustainability of our municipal cores.
